1
Rationale 1: Cyclosporine suppresses the immune response, so the nurse should assess the client for infection.
Rationale 2: Cyclosporine may result in decreased urine output, but this is not the priority concern.
Rationale 3: There isn't any correlation between airway clearance and cyclosporines.
Rationale 4: Hypertension may result from use of cyclosporine, but there is no direct relation to cardiac output.
